Gaiden 6
Unfortunately, Rafel's plan didn't work out too well.It's not easy to find a monster while wandering through the vast mountains, but even if you find this damn monster, teleportation immediately ruins it.
Nervous, Rafel tried ignoring the monster and going to the temple by scooping water from the spring. At least two days to recover.
It was really turning around. Lafel, who had already been fooling around for four days, glared at the empty spring's dirt floor with angry eyes.
“I can't stand it anymore, this new baby to eat……!!”
Now is the time for him to accept the fact that force cannot be resolved. A person in a hurry is bound to find a way. Anger and nervousness allowed Rafel to devise an unprecedented scheme.
Rafel immediately ran down the mountain and robbed his fruit vendor. In front of the ferocious sword master, the fruit vendors were helpless. They couldn't even resist properly and robbed the fresh tomatoes they just delivered today.
Having bought all the tomatoes for several wagons, Raffel began to plant them in the trees around the spring. Clearly, tomatoes do not grow on trees, but trees have untimely red fruits on their branches. Droop like willows under the weight of the tomatoes.
“Great. That should be enough.”
Lapel, who came down from the tree, gnashed his teeth and untied the scabbard from his waist and threw it to the ground.
Raffel, who woke up at dawn and checked on Sam, smiled with a repentant smile. He held the canteen he had brought with him in his hand and bent down, pretending to draw water from the spring. The background of the twilight dawn, and a monster appeared.
“Kikkiik!!”
The monster flapped its colorful wings and made a noise and teleported straight to Sam. Perhaps it was because he gained strength from drinking the sacred spring water, but he tended to cling to the spring. Because of this, even after running away, if Rafel was going to take the spring water, he would appear out of nowhere and take it right away.
The damn bird also has two heads, so one could suck on creatures while the other watched for rappel attacks.
Because of this, at first, Rafel pondered whether to take medicine in the spring water. But when he thought that the drugged spring water would be used for Annette's safe birth amulet, he felt uncomfortable. Worried that even that would have a negative effect on the birth due to infidelity.
So, Rafel decided to choose another method instead.
“Ha ha!!!”
At the same time as a short cry, Rapel swung the chain scythe in his hand as hard as he could. Then, tree branches everywhere were cut and shaken, and tomatoes rained down from above.
Although the monster bird avoided the trajectory of the scythe by teleportation, it could not avoid all the falling tomatoes. A few of them splattered and fell, making a mess of the bird's colorful feathers.
But Rafel could n't be satisfied with that alone.He dropped more tomatoes as the chains in his hands his his spun frantically.And one of them finally hit the bird's head and flowed down.
“Queek, Queek!!”
He was tormented by the tomato juice that got one of his heads in his eye.I shook my head wildly to brush it off, and the other hair also stumbled here and there.
Lapel's eyes flashed when he found a gap. He came again and again, eager not to miss this moment. He immediately threw the chain scythe in his hand at the monster. Of the lack of a lot of tomatoes.
“Keeek!!”
The familiar light flashed, and the monster teleported. Again, I had no idea where I was going. But Lafel's keen sense of smell was able to pick up the pungent smell of tomatoes from behind him.
Damn tomatoes!'
It was the smell that made me sick of it every time I hung tomatoes on countless tree branches.
Rafel threw his chain scythe straight toward the smell. The scythe, much longer and more flexible than the sword, flew in a parabolic arc. Then he decapitated one of the monster bird's two heads.
“Kkeuk, definitely!!!”
The blood that flowed from the bird's severed neck was mysteriously milky white.The bird's body, which had lost one head, staggered to and fro.Taking advantage of the shock and unable to control his body his Rafel threw the scythe he had. Retrieved once more.
The scythe flew at terrifying speed and this time got stuck in the monster's chest. New white blood dripped from between the abundant feathers.
Dump
If the heart was stabbed, there was no answer even if it was a monster. With a riot of dust, the bird's large body tumbled on its side to the ground. Seeing this, Rafel's eyes flashed with joy. !
Considering the hardships he had spent chasing after this bird for several days, it was okay to bruise his bones Rafel approached, wrapping his chains around his hands his to make sure the monster was suffocated.The last remaining bird's head drooped.
“Kururu…”
With a final groan, the bird's body suddenly faded and disappeared into the ground. The scythe stuck in the bird's chest fell out of the empty air.
Rafel looked down at his feet in disbelief. At first, I wondered if it might have escaped by teleportation, but that damn 'flash!' Light did not activate. Rafel, frowning and picking up the scythe that had fallen on the ground, murmured unbelievably.
“Has it been bad…?”
Rafel dug under the ground where the body of the bird had disappeared just in case. But nothing came out of it. Is it because it's a monster that ate the sacred spring water?
Rafel hesitantly took the canteen and approached the fountain. The spring water, now quite full, glistened in the light of the morning stars. It was sacred water that I had tried several times to float, but had never been able to float because of the goddamned monster.
Slap-
I dipped the canteen in case I was wary of the surroundings, but of course the monster did not appear. Because he died at the hands of Mi-Rafel.
Only then did Rafel convince himself that he had slain the monster. Rafel's face lit up with joy as he finally got the blessed spring water.
'Annette…!'
Rafel carefully put the canteen full of spring water into his arms his his.His beloved wife managed to make her requested amulet.Naturally, his step down the mountain was very light.
“Did you kill that monster? You are truly wonderful.”
The priest, who still covered his face with a mask, admired it. Rafel raised her chin proudly and handed her a canteen of her spring water. The priest who received it opened the lid and checked the contents, then nodding.
“This is enough. Thank you for slaying the monster, Duke Kanesis. Odessa Lei Temple will not forget this help.”
“It is not helpful. I just did it for my wife. So, how long does it take to make an amulet?”
Rafel's personality his, which had been quiet for a while because of his wife his, shone again.He made the priest feel embarrassed by saying that it was not grace.And when the amulet will be completed, he only pushed me to my business.
“… As long as you have the blessed spring water, it won't take too long. It only takes one day to perform the ceremony and indwell the blessing.”
The priest, who was confused for a while, opened his mouth. At that, Rafel nodded his head in satisfaction.
“That's good.”
The fact that I had to wait another day was dissatisfying, but fortunately I did not exceed the seven-day deadline Annette had given me. On top of that, it was truly fortunate that she had even obtained the amulet for safe childbirth that she had requested.
Rafel glanced at the priest in front of her.I don't know because I sit down all the time,but I think he's quite tall for a girl.Maybe that's why his voice was somewhat husky,which gave it a very Neutral feel.
However, as long as he made an amulet, it didn't matter if the priest was a giant or a mute. Lapel, who removed her eyes from the face of the priest covered by the mask, stood up without hesitation.
“I will come back at this time tomorrow. Enough then.”
There was not even the slightest hesitation in Lapel's steps her after seeing her responsibilities her.As soon as he left, the priest who was left alone smiled absurdly.
“Because you always have a very impatient personality.”
Unexpectedly, the priest's muttering voice was noticeably lower than before. It was an attractive man's voice that no one could see as an androgynous woman's voice.
